Une Simple Lettre
Mireille Mathieu
Just a Letter
I read your letter one more time
The curtain is already rising
And everyone is waiting for me
Through my tears
I read these words of goodbye goodbye
These words that break my soul
And burn my eyes I want to hide to cry cry
But tonight I have to laugh I have to laugh and I have to sing
Put a smile on my heart that wants to cry our mask on my tears
But tonight I have to laugh I have to laugh and sing about love
When the boy I love has left fleeing my love
Just a letter, your empty seat in the front row
It represents all the emptiness of my universe now without you
Lost on stage, nailed by this spotlight
I want to scream my pain that tears my heart because I will never see you again never
But tonight I have to laugh I have to laugh and I have to sing
Put a smile on my heart that wants to cry our mask on my tears
But tonight I have to laugh I have to laugh and sing about love
When the boy I love has left fleeing my love
But tonight I have to laugh I have to laugh and I have to sing
I will have a whole life a life to cry, cry to cry
